Here’s what people have been saying about Lee recently:

@Giants__Update (July 4): “No Jung Hoo Lee, no Casey Schmitt. Just don’t tell me that All-Star appearances matter.”

San Francisco Chronicle (July 4): “San Francisco Giants second baseman Luis Arraez and starting pitcher Logan Webb were named to the NL All-Star team; solid candidates Jung Hoo Lee and Casey Schmitt were passed over.”

Bob Nightengale (June 29): “San Francisco Giants 2B Luis Arraez (.324) and OF Jung Hoo Lee (.322) are the first teammates to hit at least .320 through a team’s first 83 games since Charlie Blackmon and Nolan Arenado of the Colorado Rockies in 2019.”

Alex Pavlovic (June 23): “Jung Hoo Lee hit a solo shot to Triples Alley. At 414 feet, it’s his longest homer in the big leagues.”
